Grace Leaders Retreat 2026

This retreat is specially put together for the leaders of Grace Assembly. Let us come together to glean from our speaker, Ps Alan Hewitt, wait on the Lord and advance together as one. This is a closed retreat for invited leaders, spouse and school-going child/ren only. (Non-Gracian spouse will pay full price, without subsidy.) There will be Sparkle, Shine and Youth programs for children.

If you are not a leader, but your preteen/s would like to attend, you may register for Conference-only for your teens, and book your own accommodation, and have your own program during the 4 days when your teen/s are at the retreat.

Online registration opens on Sunday, 25 January 2026 at 1500 hours and closes on Sunday, 15 February 2026 at 2359 hours.

The Guest Speaker

Pastor Alan Hewitt (Assistant Pastor, Hope Church)

Alan was born in Coventry in the UK and after qualifying as a Rolls Royce Aeronautical Engineer left the industry to enter Bible College in 1970. After graduation in 1972 he and his wife were invited to lead a Church in Manchester where they served for 13 years before being led to Newtown in Mid-Wales where he continues to serve after 40 years of pastoral ministry. Alan has also served for over 20 years on the National Leadership Team of the British Assemblies of God. A regular and popular speaker at Conferences, his ministry is particularly appreciated for its Biblical content and relevant life application. He is the author of “The Gender Revolution” which is a call for the recognition and release of women in Church ministry and leadership. Alan brings to the table the experience and wisdom of over 55 years of full-time ministry and is married to Jennifer with three grown up children and four grandchildren.
